Running is Simple......

Expand your sense of fun.....I know I have so listen below: I think of some pretty weird crap when I am out running, biking, or trying not to drowned in the pool....here they are.

As a runner (if you are a runner or athlete), your definition of fun - which might once have included water parks, screwball comedies on DVD, relaxation and scrapbooking-must be, well, let's just say broadened and now might include the following screwball activities:

• Waking up at 5:30 am or earlier to run 10 -15 miles
• Running in the blistering heat
• Running in the rain
• Running in 400m circles....for the fun of it!!!
• Feeling as if your lungs are about to explode
• Paying good money for the privilege of turning your toenails black.....and then losing them
• Any combination of the above
• Feeling as if you have to do these things for your own well being!! (or so you don't get divorced and drowned the kids!!)

Sunday the weather was great!! I think and probably dare to say that spring has sprung here in the Four Corners....so here is what the kids spent the day doing (and every other day also). I drove by Lowe's and saw that the garden section was opening and it was almost like a strange magnetic field was pulling me toward it....however I resisted partly because if I start going there this early in season I will be BROKE and partly because I didn't want to jinx the weather!!
